Those were the first Cormorants I have seen here in Hungary.
I didn't even know they are here.
They must have been breeding at that lake, because there were at least 15 flying around there (another training school
)The shrike is my favorite too.
I found him when I was tagging along off trail. He was just sitting on that fence and looking at me and the dogs like we were some crazy fools stomping around in the undergrowth (which we were).
I get most of the names out of a nature guide and some bird ID from www.surfbirds.com
Great, helpful people there

@Gemma - I saw my first one last year here in Hungary. Fascinating birdies
@Ingrid - Da sassen 2 weiter unten am Wasser und haben sich richtig schoen in Pose geschmissen. Aber die waren wirklich zu weit weg und in einem fuer mich unmoeglichen Winkel.
Ich brauch doch irgendwann ein laengeres "Rohr" vorne auf der Kamera
Servus und so long

And the little shrike looks like such a sweet and pretty bird, the kind my daughter would remark: "look at the birdie!"

Your other two birds I have seen only in pictures. I need to win a lottery or something so I can afford to come visit. (I don't buy tickets so don't hold your breath!)
